@ Paris Cat Jazz Club, 7pm

Panorama Brasil finish off a big year of shows with something extra special - the Panorama Brasil All-Stars, featuring vocalists Dany Maia and Jacqueline Gawler, as well as Josh Bridges (cavaco/voice). This promises to be an incredible night of Brazilian music, with a stack of new sambas for the band, alongside some beautiful bossa nova and choro, as well as some Afro-Brazilian jazz.

Gawler lived in Rio de Janeiro as an Ipanema local - playing and recording with some of Brazil’s finest Grammy award-winning musicians – and released her debut solo album ‘Ambrosia’ to critical acclaim both in Australia and Brazil, reaching the Top 20 in the KK Box charts in Asia with over 8 million subscribers. Comprising a formidable ensemble of Melbourne’s top players, América Do Sul play stunning original songs from ‘Ambrosia’, alongside wildly rhythmic interpretations of samba, bossa nova, and deep, fiery grooves that ignite the senses. Interspersed with original spoken word delivered in Rio-accent Portuguese, and spontaneous percussive tangents, this band is a pure celebration of the latin spirit delivered with joyful mastery. Gawler draws inspiration from artists such as Sergio Mendes, Antonio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto, Rosa Passos, Milton Nascimento, Elis Regina and Jorge Ben Jor, as well as muses such as Iemanjá (Goddess of the Ocean) and beachside paradise Ipanema, to take audiences on an unforgettable journey through Brazil and beyond.
